Description 

This climb is an ok warm up, but not classic by any means. It is not to be missed if you are a little adventerous and want to climb all the routes at the crag.

Crawl through a chimney behind some stacked flakes on the far left side of the cliff and layback up a corner to an obvious dead tree on a ledge. Belay here or head up and left on knobby, unprotected climbing. This gains easier slabs and cracks that take you to the top.

Location 

This is left of Root Canal.

Protection 

Take a single rack and some nuts. If you can climb the crux, you will probably be fine running out the rest of the climb a little bit.
